The Combination of Moving And Rotating Spring Effect

The Spring constraint contains both Move and Rotate spring settings. By combining the settings of these two groups, you may create a physics object that is able to bounce and sway with spring effects.

  1. Apply a prop and set it as Dynamic rigid body.
  2. Apply a Spring constraint to it.
  3. Offset the constraint away from the rigid body so that it rotates by the center of the constraint.
  4. Because the object is going to bounce up, forward and rotate, set the Limit as described below:

    Spring settings

    The settings for the moving or rotating of the constraint are described as shown below:

    The values for the Move section determine the height for the rigid body to bounce up to.

    The light yellow area is for the rotating spring effect by the Local Z axis.

  5. Apply a box to hold the object. Set the cover of the box as Frozen rigid body.
  6. Play to simulate.
